Walk where your heart leads you, there are no restrictions and no burdens.

Love is so holy, so confusing. It makes a man anxious, tormented. Love, how can I define it?

Men always look differently at women, even if it's not your intention it is wrongly interpreted as such.

It's in literature that true life can be found. It's under the mask of fiction that you can tell the truth.

For me, writing [was] a question of survival...I could not trust anyone, even my family. The atmosphere was so poisoned. People even in your own family could turn you in.

To subvert is not the aim of literature, its value lies in discovering and revealing what is rarely known, little known, thought to be known but in fact not very well known of the truth of the human world. It would seem that truth is the unassailable and most basic quality of literature.

If you want to do anything, do it now, without compromise or concession, because you have only one life.
